UPDATE Week of January 23


getting the Fellows alumni band together!

The Week 
After a great Testimony Advance, the Fellows were back into the swing of things with work and luncheons and classes and...bowling.


Callie's got some bowling style

Round Table...Belated...

This is from last week but Meg is worth being celebrated not only at the Fellows House but also on the World Wide Web. 

It was cheesecake and a special visit from one of her best friends, Kennedy, and a round of blessings for our precious gal. Happy Birthday Meg!


IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN HOSTING US FOR ROUND TABLE DINNER LET US KNOW!!!

Leader Lunch with David Barksdale


We had an awesome Leader Lunch this week at Piedmont Federal with David Barksdale. 

some of my notes:
"Early is good. On time is late."
"$ is important, but it's not the most important"
"find good mentors"
"the greatest among you is the servant among you"
"lead from the back"


moving on up


you know when a speaker connects when this happens

Mid-January Party(s)


The Fellows Alums put on a post-New-Years-pre-Valentines-mid-January-Party. We were on our retreat so we missed it, but I hear good times were had by all!



We celebrated one of the best dudes in Winston, Barnes Harris, on Friday


The Greensboro Fellows came over for a game night last Thursday


Callie, Ned, and Thomas celebrated unicorns because hey, why not?

Non-Profit Gathering


Bookmarks put on a great workshop from non-profit leaders at Crossnore on Wednesday. the one and only Kathy Northington facilitated. Check out that new logo. Woo Hoo!

Bowling Night


Saturday night was bowling night for the Fellows...yeehaw



Recruiting Update

We welcomed Will Parker, one of our 23-24 Fellows on Saturday for a preview of the house. 

We also interviewed two more folks and are lining up a few more interviews this week hopefully. Keep praying! Fellows only come by prayer, I'm convinced.

October 2025

October 2025 The Carolina Classic Fair seems to usher in fall here in Winston-Salem. We are now in the full swing of our Fellow's schedule. We've celebrated birthdays, enjoyed the beautiful weather, and more!  Happy Birthday Alana! Sweet Alana is so easy to celebrate! Dharma and Gracie, from the class of '24, threw Alana a party and planned an early morning hike for our girl that loves the great outdoors!

We had a wonderful end to the year celebrating all that this class and our year together.  As we close out another incredible year, be sure to check out an update on the Fellows class of 2023–2024 below. We’re excited to share what they’ve been doing since graduation and how they continue to make an impact in Winston-Salem and beyond. Happy Birthday, William! William’s birthday is actually in August, but summer birthdays are always a surprise celebration around here. Although, since we celebrated at the last Round Table, I’m not sure it was much of a surprise after all.  For the guy who can’t have peanuts and doesn’t like most chocolate, birthday cake ice cream saved the day!   Leader Lunch Our last Leader Lunch of the year was with Charlie Barham at Cassia Capital. While Charlie has an  impressive résumé, much of our conversation centered on his passion for Jesus and his leadership with Bible Stu...
